[Verse 1]
Seen all the good things and bad
Running down the hill
All so battered and brought to the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
I am hungry again
I am drunk again
With all the money I owe to my friends

[Chorus]
When I'm like this
How can you be smiling, singing?
How can you be sure?
How can you be sure?

[Verse 2]
If you walk out the door
Will I see you again?
If so much of me lies in your eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
I am hungry again
I am drunk again
With all the money I owe to my friends

[Chorus]
When I'm like this
How can you be smiling, singing?
How can you be sure?
(I don't want you, I don't want you)
How can you be sure?
(I don't want you, I don't want you)
How can you be sure?
(I don't want you, I don't want you)
How can you be sure?
(I don't want you, I don't want you)

[Outro]
I don't want you
I don't want you anymore
I don't want you
I don't want you anymore

Radiohead

Radiohead emerged from the shadow of ‘90s Brit-pop with a sound that was moody, melodic and explosive; with roots planted firmly in both alternative culture and the art-rock legacy of such groups as Pink Floyd, R.E.M., The Smiths, and Talking Heads—from whose song they derived their name.

They formed in 1985, as On A Friday, named after the day they’d usually rehearse. The line-up hasn’t changed Thom Yorke (guitar/vocals), Ed O'Brien (guitar), Philip Selway (drums) and brothers Colin and Jonny Greenwood.

In 1991, they signed with EMI, changed their name to Radiohead, and recorded their first EP, Drill. They released the record in 1992, and it made little impact, debuting on the UK Charts at #101. It wasn’t until their catchy 1992 single “Creep” became a massive hit that the band was launched into the limelight.
